curldown: make 'added-in:' a mandatory header field
- generate AVAILABILITY manpage sections automatically - for consistent
  wording

- allows us to double-check against other documumentation (symbols-in-versions
  etc)

- enables proper automation/scripting based on this data

- lots of them were wrong or missing in the manpages

- several of them repeated (sometimes mismatching) backend support info

Add test 1488 to verify "added-in" version numbers against
symbols-in-versions.

Closes #14217

SYNOPSIS

CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SERVICE_NAME, char *name);

DESCRIPTION

Pass a char pointer as parameter to a string holding the name of the service for DIGEST-MD5, SPNEGO and Kerberos 5 authentication mechanisms. The default service names are "ftp", "HTTP", "imap", "ldap", "pop" and "smtp". This option allows you to change them.

The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option.

int main(void)
{
  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    CURLcode ret;
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com/");
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_SERVICE_NAME, "custom");
    ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
  }
}

RETURN VALUE

Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not, or CURLE_OUT_OF_MEMORY if there was insufficient heap space.
